Hi everyone,
I'm planning on building a new gaming desktop in the next two weeks. Could you help me choose the parts?
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
1200-1300$. Tax and shipping included
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Boston, Massachusetts
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
CPU
CPU cooler
Mobo
RAM
Storage
GPU
Case
PSU
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Not reusing anything
6) Will you be overclocking?
I'd like to try overclocking, but is it useful for the purposes of gaming performance?
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
I'm also buying a new monitor. it will probably be 1920x1080p or 1920x1200p, 23"-24". Still undecided.
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
next two weeks
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gb/s. Maybe SLI/Crossfire...
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Windows 8 64bit
